I am 57 years of age and a caregiver for my husband who is a quadriplegic stroke victim. I was a member of the 100 Pound Pioneers three years ago. I worked hard and lost weight then because sometimes gets in the way I stopped working out and gained weight again. So I am back to lose weight again. I am a writer, and my books Prophecy of Vithan and Stone of Cruento are published by Cerridwen Press as ebooks and I am working on my third book. I am a grandmother three times over to Yuriel who is three years old and Wesley who is two years old and Regan who is 6 months old. With Million Dollar Body, the 100 Pound Pioneers and my loving husband and aunt I have the encouragement and am making the resolve to work hard and lose the weight again and this time stick to it and lose all 100 pounds.

My Progress

My fitness goal: Lose Weight

Transformation story

Below is what I wrote in 2007. I was full of bluster but not committed. Have you ever had a moment in time when it just clicked? I had one March 30, 2008. When the time is now. To Do it, Achieve it, Live it.
Something in me has changed. I have made up my mind to lose excess baggage, lose excess calories, and find the real, smaller me. I'll keep you updated on the journey.
***********************************************************
I was one of those Big Beautiful Women who convinced herself that she was beautiful at 307 pounds and didn't need to do anything about it. That was until I go so out of shape and so fat that I couldn't take care of my husband. I got out of breath doing the everyday things I had to do. It was then that I saw a TurboJam ad on TV. I discovered the site MyBeachbody and the 100 Pound Pioneers. I succeeded in losing 55 pounds. Then I made the mistake of sitting on my laurels. "After all, since I lost 55 pounds losing the next 50 pounds won't be hard. I can take a break." Well, After taking almost a year break, I am back up to 275. That is still 25 pounds to the good so I am not complaining too loudly. But it is not where I want to be. So I am re-starting with Turbo Jam and a new commitment with the New Year of 2007.
